Tim,
The big thing to get right is the oil.. the flat tappet motors can
wreck a cam with inappropriate oil, and its all about the zinc. There
is a company that makes proper spec oil for our cars.. they are USA
based.. i cant remember off the top of my head.. but e-mail buck
tripple he and all the vintage race boys use it (the brand is someones
name i htink) they also have special flat tappet break-in oil.. i
would spend the $ and get that one.. sorry i cant recall the name off
the top of my head.
